Bill Clinton híres idézetei

„A történelem megmutatta, hogy nem engedhetjük meg emberek tömeges kiirtását és nem ülhetünk nézvén, hogy mi történik.”

„A zsarnoksághoz vezető út, és ezt nem szabad felednünk, az igazság elpusztításával veszi kezdetét.”

„Amikor Angliában voltam, akkor egy vagy két alkalommal kipróbáltam a marihuánát és nem ízlett. Nem is tüdőztem le és soha többé nem próbáltam ki újra.”

Bill Clinton

„Szeretnék mondani valamit az amerikai népnek. Azt akarom, hogy hallgassanak meg. Elmondanám még egyszer. Nem volt semmiféle szexuális kapcsolatom azzal a nővel, Lewinski kisasszonnyal. Nem biztattam senkit sem hazugságra, nem csak most, hanem soha sem. Ezek a híresztelések hazugságok, most pedig vissza kell térnem munkámhoz az amerikai népért.”

Bill Clinton

„Társadalmunk gazdag faji, vallási és politikai összetétele egy isteni ajándék lesz a 21. században. Nagy lesz azoknak a jutalma, akik képesek együtt élni, együtt tanulni, együtt dolgozni és minket összekötő szálakat kovácsolni.”

Bill Clinton

„Amerika az Önök oldalán áll, most és mindörökké.”

“There are clear, achievable, affordable responses to our challenges. But we won’t get to them if America makes the wrong choice in this election. That’s why you should elect her. And you should elect her because she’ll never quit when the going gets tough. She’ll never quit on you.”

“Let me tell you what the facts are. Now, we had a hard time getting those facts into these debates, because they're so inconvenient for the other side. And I admire that about the Republicans: The evidence does not faze them. … They are not bothered at all by the facts. And you've got to kind of give it to them. … They know what they're for.”

“You know, we can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans to legitimately own handguns and rifles -- it's something I strongly support -- we can't be so fixated on that that we are unable to think about the reality of life that millions of Americans face on streets that are unsafe, under conditions that no other nation—no other nations—has permitted to exist. And at some point, I still hope that the leadership of the National Rifle Association will go back to doing what it did when I was a boy and which made me want to be a lifetime member because they put out valuable information about hunting and marksmanship and safe use of guns. But just to know of the conditions we face today in a lot of our cities and other places in this country and the enormous threat to public safety is amazing.”

Remarks and a Question-and-Answer Session at the Adult Learning Center in New Brunswick, New Jersey http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=46264, March 1, 1993 1990s

“I learned a lot from the stories my uncle, aunts, and grandparents told me: that no one is perfect but most people are good; that people can't be judged only by their worst or weakest moments; that harsh judgements make hypocrites of us all; that a lot of life is just showing up and hanging on; that laughter is often the best, and sometimes only response to pain.”

“You should have disagreements with your leaders and your colleagues, but if it becomes immediately a question of questioning people's motives, and if immediately you decide that somebody who sees a whole new situation differently than you must be a bad person and somehow twisted inside, we are not going to get very far in forming a more perfect union.”

“My grandfather just had a grade-school education. But in that country store he taught me more about equality in the eyes of the Lord than all my professors at Georgetown; more about the intrinsic worth of every individual than all the philosophers at Oxford; and he taught me more about the need for equal justice than all the jurists at Yale Law School.”

“If you believe in making change from the bottom up, if you believe the measure of change is how many people’s lives are better, you know it’s hard and some people think it’s boring. Speeches like this are fun. Actually doing the work is hard. So people say, well, we need to change. She’s been around a long time, she sure has, and she’s sure been worth every single year she’s put into making people’s lives better.”

“You know, I have repeatedly defended President Bush against the left on Iraq, even though I think he should have waited until the U. N. inspections were over. I don't believe he went in there for oil. We didn't go in there for imperialist or financial reasons. We went in there because he bought the Wolfowitz-Cheney analysis that the Iraqis would be better off, we could shake up the authoritarian Arab regimes in the Middle East, and our leverage to make peace between the Palestinians and Israelis would be increased.”

“I think it's very interesting that all the conservative Republicans who now say I didn't do enough claimed that I was too obsessed with Bin Laden. All of President Bush's neo-cons thought I was too obsessed with Bin Laden. They had no meetings on Bin Laden for nine months after I left office. All the right-wingers who now say I didn't do enough, said I did too much—same people.”

“Next, we must help parents protect their children from the gravest health threat that they face -- an epidemic of teen smoking, spread by multimillion dollar marketing campaigns. I challenge Congress -- let's pass bipartisan, comprehensive legislation that will improve public health, protect our tobacco farmers and change the way tobacco companies do business forever. Let's do what it takes to bring teen smoking down. Let's raise the price of cigarettes by up to $1.50 a pack over the next 10 years with penalties on the tobacco industry if it keeps marketing to our children.”

She said, don’t tell me that, you’re as smart as anybody, you’ve just got to believe in yourself and work hard and set high goals. She believed that anybody could make it.”
